About Our School
The first block was laid for St. Paul’s Primary School in 1980 and completed in 1981 at a cost of £635,000. In May 2019 the sod was turned for a brand new building on the site of the old football pitch. The new building comprising of 32 classrooms, 2 room Special Unit and all mod cons cost over €9million!

🏆🇮🇪 ALL-IRELAND DAY! 🇮🇪🏆
It’s All-Ireland Day, and there’s even more excitement for St. Paul’s as one of our very own pupils, Áine, takes to the hallowed turf of Croke Park during the half-time exhibition game at the All-Ireland Senior Football Final!
After St. Paul’s won the Mini 7s competition earlier this year, Áine earned the fantastic opportunity to represent our school on one of the biggest stages in Gaelic Games. What an incredible reward for all the hard work, teamwork and dedication shown by our Mini 7s champions.
We are so proud of Áine and thrilled to see one of our own representing St. Paul’s in Croke Park today.
Best of luck, Áine! Enjoy every second, soak up the atmosphere and make memories that will last a lifetime. 💙🏐

Today we held our 4th annual St. Paul’s Got Talent, and what an incredible afternoon it was! With over 25 amazing acts, the standard was unbelievably high, making it one of our toughest competitions yet.
From card tricks 🃏 to Irish dancing ☘️, singing 🎶, original song compositions 🎼, gymnastics 🤸 and so much more, our students wowed us with their talent, creativity and confidence.
A huge thank you to our fantastic guest judges:
⭐ Fran McKeown, fresh (?!) from completing the incredible 337km Borderline Madness Run in aid of our school
🙏 Fr. Robert, our school chaplain
🎓 Ruben Kelly, our 6th Class Student Council representative
🍎 Jackie Sheridan, teacher and special guest as she prepares for her retirement at the end of this week
After much deliberation, prizes were awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in both the junior and senior categories 🏆👏
Every student who took part received a certificate of participation, and most importantly, a wonderful afternoon was had by all.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped organise, support and make the day such a success. Already looking forward to year 5! 💙✨

🏃♂️ Incredible progress from Fran! 💚💛
Fran has now made it past Ashbourne, where he was met by a small group of St. Paul’s pupils who joined him for part of the journey and helped lift the spirits! 👏
With just 67km to go out of an unbelievable 337km, the finish line is in sight!
What an incredible effort, Fran — your determination, resilience and spirit have been nothing short of inspiring. Some running! 🙌💪
Keep going, Fran — the whole St. Paul’s community is behind you every step of the way!

🚴♂️🌧️ Our 4th Annual Greenway Cycle was another huge success!
Despite the rain, we had a fantastic turnout with parents and children from 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th class taking part. It was brilliant to see such enthusiasm and community spirit on the day.
A big thank you to all our teachers and staff for their support, and to our amazing partners — Meath County Council, An Garda Síochána, Order of Malta Ireland, Navan Cycling Initiative and Park Beo, who were fantastic hosts for our pit stop and helped make the day run so smoothly.
A special word of thanks to Mr. Conlan for the huge amount of work he put into organising all the logistics — it wouldn’t happen without that dedication! 👏
Well done to everyone who took part! Already looking forward to Year 5! 💚🚲 #GreenwayCycle #SchoolCommunity #ActiveSchools #RainDidntStopUs

The boys and girls from 3rd to 6th had a great day in Claremont. They competed in sprints, long distance, jumping and throwing. We won an amazing 3 gold medals and one silver. Shea Smyth won gold in the under 13s long jump, Beth Murphy won gold in the under 12s 100 metres, Sean Broderick won gold for the second year in a row in the under 10s 60 metres and Daniel Povolsky won silver for the second year in a row in the under 10s ball throw.
We had many fantastic performances from our children on the day and they represented St. Paul’s with great pride. Well done all!
